Hey there, everyone. I took a few days off of posting, as I was busy all weekend and relaxing yesterday. This was actually one of my "scheduled" days off of posting, but eh, I'll just go ahead and post since I didn't yesterday. Sooo, I dyed my hair over the weekend. The burgundy was fading out and I wanted to try a different brand. I bought Garnier Nutrisse Darkest Berry Burgundy while on a Target run the other day, and my 18yr old niece helped my dye it Saturday evening. It's darker than I thought it'd be. It looks dark brown or black with hints of red or purple in the light. I'm fine with it though, and who knows how it'll look after the next wash? It may look lighter, I don't know. We'll see when I wash my hair again. I'm not going to stress over it because it's just hair, and it's kind of different than what I usually do, so it's cool haha. Now in the picture I'm attaching, it looks kind of purple under the sunlight. If it starts looking more like that rather than reddish-burgundy, I'd be okay with that lol. I really like how it looks in that picture. I have other ideas in mind for my next color, but unless this fades too fast, I'm not looking to re-dye my hair until July or August. The color I have right now is fine and, to be honest, dying my hair can be a pain because it's thick. Unlike a year or so ago, I know how to get back to brown when I'm ready. I've only ever bleached my hair once (which was when I went from magenta to brown last year), so bleaching it again when I go back to brown isn't going to kill it. For now, I just want to have fun with my hair colors. Anywho, I need to get back to my work. You all have a good day/evening and take care.

It looks good! I have to re dye my hair and my daughters but we do semi so it’s washed out in a few washes

@ShyBear88 Thanks! I hope it does too. I'll probably have to bleach it to go to my next color, since it's so dark, and I'm too lazy to do any of that too soon lol. Aaah, I'm sorry you have to deal with that.

Thank you! Gotcha. I usually do permanent, but it usually fades or grows out over time. The Revlon I used faded quicker (it was a $3 box so I get it lol), so we'll see how long Garnier Nutrisse lasts.

@tammys85 hopefully it stays for a while. When I do permanent I have to bleach my hair first then color it. But since I have natural red high lights my red hair genes makes it much harder to dye.

Tammy, I think your hair looks beautiful! The color is awesome, I really like it:) After a couple washings it will change colors, to a softer tone probably. It's nice, good job!

Thank you so much! I'm curious as to what it'll look like, but I do use a color-safe shampoo on dyed hair lol.

@tammys85 Regardless of which shampoo I use, the color still lightens up a bit. It might not even be noticeable.

@kobesbuddy Gotcha. It hasn't really lightened, but sometimes it has red tints and other times it has purple tints, but I like it... like, which tints will I have today lol?

@tammys85 I like what you did to your hair. It is very interesting. I hope when it gets washed it will be like you want. I hope you will be happy with whatever color you put in your hair.

Thank you! I'm happy with it now, so if it doesn't fade or lighten yet, that's okay.
